With great sorrow, we announce the passing of Maryanne Trump Barry, the esteemed elder sister of former President Donald J. Trump, at the age of 86.
Maryanne was found in her New York City apartment on November 13, prompting a response from first responders after a report of cardiac arrest.
Throughout her career, Maryanne served as a senior judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, retiring in 2019 after years of dedicated service. Initially appointed to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey by President Ronald Reagan in 1983, she was later elevated to the Court of Appeals by President Bill Clinton in 1999.
In recent years, Maryanne faced scrutiny over alleged fraudulent tax and financial transactions involving her family. The investigation led to her retirement.
While her relationship with her brother, Donald, remains unclear, she was recorded expressing concerns about his principles by her niece, Mary.
Maryanne’s passing marks the third sibling lost by Donald Trump. Our heartfelt condolences go out to the Trump family during this trying time.
Maryanne Trump Barry devoted her life to public service as a respected judge. Her contributions and commitment to justice will be remembered.
Her legacy of strength and resilience, despite challenges in her later years, serves as an inspiration. Let us honor her life and impact on the legal community, keeping her memory alive as we strive for a better future.
